The 1958 case NAACP v. Alabama struck down the requirement that organizations provide membership lists to the government on the basis of freedom of association. The court reasoned that in this case, requiring the NAACP to disclose their membership to the state of Alabama violated the 14th Amendment.

Answer:

The case National Association of the Advancement of Colored People v. Alamaba of 1958 struck down the obligation of the associations of providing a list of members to the government, which limited the right of association.

Step-by-step explanation:

In NAACP v Alabama, the Supreme Court ruled that government's requirement to civil associations to submit membership lists was contrary to fundamental rights of US citizens, specifically to the protection of the Fourteenth Amendment, and to the right of freedom of association and privacy, which, altogether, composed the right of free association.
